| Emeril Lagasse may be a somewhat flamboyant chef with an impressive résumé, but we're not entirely sold on his Orlando outpost. If you're in the mood for high-calorie, New Orleans-style cooking, get in line for a table. If, however, you are not into giant plates heaped with over-sauced fish and meats, skip this experience. The City Walk location has been designed to reflect the New Orleans warehouse district where Emeril's first restaurant is located, but that, too, seems out of place in the midst of City Walk's flashy neon and underdressed tourists. We like the gumbo paired with Emeril's salad. Entrées, certainly big enough to share, are a flamboyant mix of flavors, such as the andouille-crusted Texas redfish with potato-mushroom hash, Creole meunière sauce and candied pecan relish; or hickory smoked-lemon grass roasted duck with ginger rice pilaf, baby bok choy and honey-soy butter sauce. Try to simplify and go for the grilled rib-eye with mashed potatoes, Emeril’s homemade Worcestershire sauce and crispy onions. We recommend one dessert, the banana cream pie. |
